EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of winter in a dramatic and mythological scene painted by Eugène Delacroix. The painting, titled "Four Seasons, Winter: Juno beseeches to destroy Aeneas' Fleet," depicts a powerful moment from Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid.
In the painting, we see Juno, the queen of the gods in Roman mythology, pleading with her husband Jupiter to destroy Aeneas' fleet as he attempts to establish a new kingdom in Italy. This scene is filled with tension and emotion as Juno uses all her powers to thwart Aeneas' destiny.
Delacroix's masterful use of color and light brings this ancient tale to life on canvas. The rich blues and whites of winter create a sense of coldness and foreboding, while Juno's fierce expression conveys her determination to stop Aeneas at any cost.
As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported back in time to the world of Greek and Roman mythology. We can almost hear the crashing waves and feel the chill wind as Juno wages war against fate itself.
This print is not just a beautiful piece of art; it is a window into another world where gods and mortals clash in an eternal struggle for power and glory. It reminds us that even in our modern age, these ancient stories still hold sway over our imaginations.
